What a fantastic location and another brilliant shot ! The light is fabulous and the scene so much more dramatic with the grey stormy clouds.

Brilliant colours, against that menacing grey sky. Love the anchor, looks like its coming out of the screen.

I like this

I am impressed David by how you have composed this to make a great photo out of what is effectively a messy boat tard/ area

K10D, K5 plus plenty of clueless enthusiasm.

Excellent composition and use of color. Your use of the polarizer and grad filter is very interesting. There is something to learn here for me
I have played around with both, but often get frustrated in my attempts, I guess a hood over my head or eye cup would help to see the subtle effects of polarizer vs grad.

Great shot.

Hi JMD, thanks for the comment. Regarding the polariser and ND Grad, just make sure the polariser is not too strong as this would be too much IMHO. The one I use with the ND Grad has a fairly wek polarising effect, but it works just great with the Grad.
